Nobody wants to fly on the disastrous 737 Max, even if Boeing fixes it
Earlier this year, a Boeing 737 Max 8 crashed in Ethiopia, claiming the lives of all 157 people on board. The crash was the second tragic loss of a 737 Max 8 full of passengers within several months, leading aviation authorities to ground the planes until the company and safety officials could determine what went wrong. Plenty of news regarding the troubled planes has surfaced in the intervening months, revealing that certain software features of the planes’ computer systems are likely to blame… (www.yahoo.com) Mais...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Well, not 'nobody'. I'll fly on it.
This too shall pass. All involved will make amends, learn the lessons, and move on. Hyperbole media stories do not help the process.
This article treated us like we learned nothing from DC-10...
DC-10 had a very Healthy life after initial high profile crashes... which I can say she had proven herself been rehabilitated... why won’t we give 737 MAX a chance as well?
People didn’t stop buying bending gate iPhones or Samsung Notes... the last thing we need is articles like this spreading suspicion and distrust....even though that is what grabs all the attention these days...

Quite a reckless article looking to grab attention and sell news
There are lots of websites that inform the flying public what plane is assigned to a particular flight, including the airline's own schedule pages. People who don't fly for a living and the non-pilots (and even some pilots that I know personally) want nothing to do with the MAX. They are afraid that their remains will be picked up with a paper towel and envision the last 30 seconds of their lives in a free fall among a groups of screaming people inside an aluminum tube. I doubt that airlines are going to punish any passenger who refuses to board a plane because it is a MAX. They don't want to call attention to penalizing someone who is afraid to fly on that plane. They will give the passenger a voucher or refund to keep the individual quiet, so the other sheeple will just get on the plane.
So why be afraid of a fixed and certified airplane. If it is fixed then it is fixed. If the "certifiers" cannot be trusted then any airplane they certify can be considered as unsafe. . . . Hocus Pocus need not apply.
